Ubisoft has announced that it is beavering way on a new cooperative shooter known as Project U, and will host a closed test in western Europe.
While the game is still in the very early stages of development, Ubisoft has said that Project U “explores a new concept of session-based co-op shooter, where many players unite to prevail against an overwhelming threat.” Of the upcoming test, it commented:
“We’d love to play with you and gather your valuable feedback into order to improve the game experience and steer production in the right direction.:
Project U’s test will be available in France, Germany, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain, Italy, and the UK. If you’re interested in taking part (bearing in mind that it’s PC-only for now), you can sign up here.
Ubisoft announced overnight that it is shutting down online services for a number of titles from its major franchises, including Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry and Rayman.
